Probably one of the 500RADS goons

I don't know who the 500RADS personnel are, but I've gotten a PM from our poet and I don't think the two are connected. Just someone with a theory which can't be substantiated objectively yet and the author's hesitant to post more on it yet. Understandable.
A bit more forethought on theories before they're posted could go a long way in this long-lead ARG.

He could stand to be a little less cryptic IMHO. I don't like to shoot people's ideas down right off, but I think there are better ways to present a theory.

If you do some research, and think about it. My theory is in the poem. Open your mind a bit. Not saying I'm right at all...but still. Think of it from looking inside the train car rather than outside looking in.

although yes, I do agree it is probably too cryptic. but until some other clues open up, as the other poster said I am hesitant to post more.

No theory is too outrageous for me as long as you can explain how you came to that conclusion.
Shoot me PM if you want.

ok, so without going into too much detail from the reasons stated before. Who is to say that the driver of the truck didn't already know what was inside the train car and ran down the tracks in order to free what was inside deliberately?

unForum is a place to SHARE information while playing alternate reality games/chaotic fiction. It is not a place to pose puzzles within a game (could be considered a gamejack) and it is not a place for game characters either.
So if you are playing along with the story and have a theory, just post it already. If you want to make it a puzzle, then take the clues offsite in a blog and post the link in here with an [OT] tag on your thread.
Thanks!

i actually agree with this as being possible and may be the case h myself dont think the creature is the villain and your theory on the truck driver has been discussed many times in the other threads so feel free to tell the rest brcause im with you to a degree but since this part of your theory has been discussed before come join the rest of us and share your thoughts

I thought that was already the general assumption. Why else would someone deliberately ram into a train?
From your OP:
"In the darkness it sleeps,
bound in anger,
alive with hope.
Soon it will be freed
and then it begins."
So it's sleeping in the dark captivity of the train car and wherever else it was before that.
Bound and angry itself, or bound because of anger?
Alive with hope of what?
Obviously freed by the truck driver.
Then what begins?
